Desire
G.U.R.I Lyrics

Yeah,
Acknowledging agreement with something previously mentioned or asking for confirmation.

Lover I'm off the streets
I am no longer living rough.

Gonna go where the bright lights
I'm headed for the nightlife.

And the big city meet
I'm going where people are looking to get lost, to find themselves.

With a red guitar, on fire
I have a guitar that's been burning red hot, keeping me going.

Desire
I'm being driven by my drive to achieve, to create, to be the best version of myself.

She's the candle
She's the light that illuminates my darkest moments.

Burning in my room
I can't get her out of my head.

I'm like the needle
I'm addicted to her, like a needle to a spoon.

Needle and spoon
I'm using her to survive, to find a sense of fulfilment.

Over the counter
The love I have for her is something that can be bought and sold, like a commodity.

With a shotgun
But it's also dangerous – it can blow up in my face, like a shotgun.

Pretty soon, everybody got one
Everyone is chasing their own desires, looking for something to obsess over.

And the fever when I'm beside her
But when I'm with her, the fever takes over – the passion, the heat.

Desire,
I can't escape the pull of my own ambition, my own yearning.

Desire
It's all I can think about, all I can feel.

Desire
It's what drives me to keep going, even when things get tough.

Burning
It's a fire that never goes out, always burning within me.

She's the dollars
She has a tangible, material value – she represents money, success, power.

She's my protection
She shields me from harm, from the dangers of the world.

Yeah, she's the promise
She represents hope, what I'm striving for, what I'm chasing.

In the year of election
In a time where everyone is looking for change, for something new, for someone to lead them.

Ah, sister, I can't let you go
I'm addicted to her, I can't escape her pull.

I'm like a preacher
I'm speaking to people, trying to get them to believe in what I'm saying.

Stealing hearts at a traveling show
I'm taking people's emotions, their feelings, their desire for something better, and using it for my own gain.

For the love or money, money?
Is it really just about the money, or is there something deeper driving me?

Desire
It's what I'm chasing, what I'm searching for.

Desire
It's what keeps me going, even when everything else falls apart.

Desire
It's what defines me, what makes me who I am.

Desire
It's what separates me from everyone else, what gives me my own unique perspective on life.
